APOLLO Smart Helix Razor

Anyone seen this razor in the wild yet? Just got an email for a preorder for it from Shave Nation and went to their website to check it out. Beautiful design but in the cost range of a Raw Shaving RS-10. Anybody know anything about it?

All I know about it is what I've seen in some promotional YouTube videos.  It's a new company in Ukraine.  I'm not inclined to pay for a preorder of anything.  If a company can't raise the capital to produce inventory of its product, I'm not making them an interest free loan.  That's just my personal view, and is not a criticism of those who do pay for preorders.

Yeah, I would really like to hear from someone that has one. I also don’t need another stand. Just the head and handle. On their actual website, they are selling the handle, which is in stock, and the head, which is out of stock, separately.

Between the manufacturer and vendor there was very little stock. I guess because its a new company not many razors were produced to begin with. The head flips similar to the iKon razor. The heads were offered for sale by Smart Helix with free shipping for only $150 but are currently sold out.

I spoke with manufacturer in Ukraine and he said he will have more available Monday 4/22 and Shave Nation said a few weeks. Would love to hear reviews and how it compares to other high end razors

My pleasure!!! Looks like a nice razor but need to hear reviews. $280 is nothing to sneeze at.

Exactly, that’s why I would prefer to just spend $150 on the head.

giofatboy has a video coming out very soon rating this razor but will not release any info before hand. He has done several shaves and keeping it a secret. This actually turns me off.

That’s kind of strange. Why is he keeping things secret? That’s kind of strange. I really like the head design from the pics but now I am going back and forth with whomever is responding to my emails and they won’t be releasing the heads separately for a while as they have several orders for the complete set. I will pass because I refuse to buy one of these without knowing how it shaves. I can wait.

I agree. I would be interested in the head only and don't need another handle and stand. Between Apollo and Shave Nation they must have sold at least ten sets but nobody has posted a review yet.

The shave review is online from Shave Nation. It is a pretty good review but make up your own mind.

It's really not a review he doesn't compare to any other razor It's more like a promo for the razor,,, will wait for the people to speak
